I'm doing a quick pinch-hit for Lee today before Sunday School. I just listed my Vigilante collection on ebay yesterday and I was impressed about all the great covers. It really made me want to read the series again. Enjoy! And if you're interested you can buy them here:
These are actual scans from my copies. I remember #19 being one of my favorites with art by Denis Cowan, who drew the Question series (also on sale right now) -- desperate plug.
This series did great job transitioning from the pre-Crisis to post-Crisis universes without missing a beat.

Thanks for the coverage Matthew! I always enjoyed the covers to this series. #50 was interesting because it was one of the first time a lead committed suicide to end the series. Talk about going out with a bang!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! It was a blessing to get it together so fast. I was going to "lift" the pics from comicvine, but they weren't clear enough -- hence the scanning. I remember reading that Chase's suicide was envisioned if not at the inception, long before the series ended. How can you live the duo life of Judge and Executioner and not be messed up?
